SEO Videos Free BHAG Site #4

SEO Videos Free contains a searchable library of more than 7,000 titles

SEO Videos Free SEO Videos Free BHAG Site #4

The third and final site in the SEO Experts Pro group is SEO Videos Free and it represents site #4 in my 30 sites in 30 days November Big Harry Audacious Goal (BHAG), which has been detailed in prior posts on my blog. This site represents an acquisition opportunity that came along at the perfect time and was the missing piece of the puzzle.

Video is big and many people including me prefer learning through video instruction, so it is always a good idea to include video as a key component to any website project that you develop.  I decided to add video to the the SEO Experts Pro project first by adding video to the SEO Experts Pro blog, which I did and then decided to go a step further by putting together a sister sister which became SEO Free Videos.

I explored building a WordPress based site, a PHP based site, and contracting a programmer to create a site for me. I finally decided to acquire a site through an online auction from a programmer who has extensive experience building video “how to” sites and it was a great decision.

This one was simple as the site was delivered complete and only required that I transfer the files to my hosting account and the domain name to my domain host. The majority of the work to connect the site to the other sites in this group relied on the blog and the social media profiles at Facebook and Twitter.

Search Engines Revealed BHAG Site #3

Search Engines Revealed is a massive e-book packed with SEO secrets!

The second site in the SEO Experts Pro project is also site #3 of my 30 sites in 30 days November Big Harry Audacious Goal (BHAG), which has been detailed in prior posts on my blog. If you are not aware of what this crazy project is all about and the objectives I have set forth to add value for you and everyone else I engage with in my businesses. Be sure to read the prior post where I explain the entire vision for series of projects.

I created the Internet Business Blueprint to teach others how to create sales funnels and front-end offers that provides extreme value, build your list, and allows you to accomplish your specific major purpose for establishing a business online. Regardless if you are providing a product free of charge or severely under charging as I have done here with a $7 price tag on a book that sells online for forty-seven dollars.

I have written and published e-books as well as utilized private label rights products (PLR) to create high value offers for my customers and subscribers to my list. In this case I decided to provide an extreme value on an expertly written e-book on a very challenging topic… search engine optimization.

This project did not require too much effort, but that does not mean the outcome has any less impact for you and me. It certainly required that I learn a few new skills concerning HTML editing and a few other coding actions.

Here are three tips to consider when using PLR products:

1. Only buy quality PLR to ensure that the content is worthy of you placing your name on it.

2. Generally I would recommend heavily editing the content to ensure that it represents your point of view on the topic.

3. Invest the time required to learn how to properly benefit from re-purposing information products.

Search Engines Revealed is a 173 page e-book that you will gain instant access to from the sales page located here: Search Engines Revealed

The book is divided into eleven chapters as follows:

Chap 01. Introduction to Search Engine Optimization

Chap 02. Search Engines and Directories

Chap 03. How Major Search Engines Work – Crawling Policies and Algorithms

Chap 04. Introduction to Search Engine Submission

Chap 05. Intelligent Ways of Improving Page Rankings

Chap 06. Paid Placement Programs

Chap 07. Verify and Monitor Listings and Ranking

Chap 08. Measuring Performance – Web Logs Analysis

Chap 09. Review of SEO Software and Submission Services

Chap 10. ROI in Search Engine Optimization

Chap 11. Resources and Tools for Search Engine Marketing

The amount of work that you will want to do when selling or giving away private label products or master resell rights products (MRR) depends on your purpose and what you wish to accomplish within your purpose. I have covered the gambit from heavily editing the content and revising the graphics to simply editing the sales or opt-in page as is the case here.

Here are the primary task I performed to complete this project:

1. Edited the sales page title to focus the message and catch the readers attention.

2. Edited the sales copy in order to reflect my message and update the sales page graphically.

3. Integrated the Belcher checkout button and Pay Pal check out process.

4. Integrated AWeber into the download process on the download page and added support details.

I love sharing this project with you because using PLR and MRR products provides you with an opportunity to efficiently publish information products to give away (to grow your list) and sell (to grow your bank account) and add value to your market.  The mental attitude to take when looking at PLR and MRR dictates that you are buying a research document and your job is to edit and finish the work before you place your name on it.

Where do you buy quality PLR and MRR?

I have purchased PLR and MRR products from many sources over the past couple of years and these are the sources I have found to offer quality products in a variety of niches at at a fair price or subscription. I have put together perhaps the best value for quality PLR and MRR are truly affordable prices at My Worldprofit PLR Store.

SEO Experts Pro Blog BHAG Site #2

SEO Experts Pro Incorporates three sites about Search Engine Optimization

SEO Experts Pro Screen Shot SEO Experts Pro Blog BHAG Site #2

This is the second project under the umbrella of my 30 blogs in 30 days November Big Harry Audacious Goal (BHAG), which I have detailed in previous blog posts explaining my objectives in full and the completion of the first successful project Internet Marketing Professional. The details for the SEO Experts Pro project involves 3 websites; a blog, a information product sales page (and download page), and a SEO video hosting site with a library of over seven-thousand search engine optimization videos.

This post will cover the SEO Experts Pro blog with each of the other sites getting there own review.

Site #2 is SEO Experts Pro which is a WordPress blog in the highly competitive search engine optimization niche. This site was originally soft launched (released with little or no promotion) in January 2010 and due to other projects I placed this site on hold. When I conceived the project for this site I envisioned a blog that would host articles from many search engine optimization experts that would write occasionally as guest bloggers and focus on their area of expertise and deliver extreme value to my readers. This is still one of the primary objectives going forward.

I decided that this would be the perfect time to pick this project back up and complete it due to the fact that the rules continue to change and getting your websites highly ranked in search engines and maintaining those rankings requires forethought, planning, and continual adjustments… it is not a matter of just set it and forget it.

The value proposition of this program includes training, resources and tools for website owners and Internet marketers of all experience levels helping everyone better understand SEO.

Here are the primary task I performed to complete this project:

1. Converted all affiliate links and advertising links on the site.

2. Installed additional plug-ins to add functionality and security for the site.

3. Upgraded WordPress version and scheduled automated weekly back-ups.

4. Restructured the page navigation and side bar widgets.

5. Created content for all of the site pages including my about page, contact page, a video training archive, and an embed of my web-conference room.

6. Created a subscriber list in AWeber to include follow welcome and follow up messages and added a subscriber web-form to all of the site pages.

7. Integrated my AWeber list with my primary social media profiles.

8. Added social media integration and advanced commenting using Disqus.

9. Added an RSS feed reader widget posting titles from Matt Cutts.

10. Added images and information settings to:

http://www.Facebook.com/seoexpertspro

** Facebook Page was launched 11-04-2011 and a simple Facebook profile in January 2010.

In addition to these revisions to the site, I also have put out another call for guest bloggers who are experts in the SEO niche.

I have monetized this project in three specific ways:

1. I have added a $47 information product that I am providing for only $7 at:

http://www.SEOExpertsPro.net

2. I have carefully selected SEO Moz and the SEO Book as the primary affiliate programs for the site.

3. I have installed a ClickBank products widget that displays relevant ClickBank products using CB Pro Ads

Allow me to restate the core objective of this month of projects which are two-fold. First, I am providing massive value for my customers, colleagues, subscribers, readers, and social media followers. Secondly, I am creating monetized websites to grow my business and provide true examples of the types of sites that can be developed to create multiple income streams across a variety of niches.

If one or more of my projects inspires you to create a similar project, I encourage you to contact me and allow me to help you create a successful site or two of your own. I am here to help you succeed online and create an Internet business that empowers you to accomplish your goals and objectives online.

Have a blessed day!

Internet Marketing Professional Blog is Live!

Internet Marketing Professional Internet Marketing Professional Blog BHAG Site #1

 This is the first in a series of blog post… 30 in total which will detail my progress completing a Big Harry Audacious Goal (BHAG), which I detailed in a previous blog post. In short, I am creating one new website a day for thirty days and using this process as a teaching opportunity for you and a long-term value adding process for my customers, subscribers, and followers.

Site #1 is Internet Marketing Professional which is a WordPress blog centered on teaching others how to become a successful Internet marketers in the niche of affiliate marketing. This is a site that I acquired as a new project through Flippa from a very talented web designer. The teaching around this first project concerns how you can acquire and customize quality niche sites through Flippa and other auction websites.

I acquired the site and it was fully functional however all of the pages and post where generic so it was a blank canvas from a content and branding perspective. I was attracted to the graphics and the high converting Facebook Fan Page that provides a free course on video marketing in exchange for a “Like.” I highly recommend this list building method.

Here are 7 tips to enjoy superior results buying sites on Flippa:

1. Start with a purpose (what are you looking for?) and a budget (how much you can invest in the site)… be disciplined following both.

2. Carefully read the auction listings that meet your criteria and validate any claims made by the seller including income and traffic.

3. Don’t up bid yourself, wait until the day the auction closes to place your bid. If you draw attention to the site you are interested in by bidding multiple times over many days, you will draw the interest of other bidders and drive up the sale price.

4. Establish communication with the seller prior to bidding on the auction. Exchanging messages with the seller will give you a sense of how they will be to work with after you have won the auction.

5. Ask detailed questions prior to bidding and make sure all of your major points have been addressed. (tip: ask the seller to transfer the site hosting to your account).

6. Be prepared to act on a “buy now” auction if the instant purchase price is within 30% of your ideal price. If there are multiple bidders the site may sell for more than the “buy now” price.

7. Once you have successfully completed your transaction, let the seller know that you would like to preview sites prior to listing and be sure to “follow” the seller to be advised of future listings.

In this case the domain transfer and site transfer to my hosting account were done by the developer. This was not included in the auction, but was negotiated prior to the sale with the seller. The site had remained live and on hold prior to conceiving of the 30 day project.

James Holmes is the Newest Talk Marketing Now Host

I love teaching and sharing what I have learned with others in order to fulfill my purpose as defined by my personal mission statement which is: “To sow increase into the lives of others by co-creating wealth and abundance.” Helping others create success online is a great way for me to make this ideal a reality.

Last week Brian Schilling, co-founder of Family Networker and a new friend invited me to guest host his weekly show on Talk Marketing Now Network (TMN). I really enjoyed hosting the show and I found the audience to very engaged. A quick survey revealed that most in attendees where intermediate to advanced marketers along with several newer marketers. At the end of the night it was clear to me that this was a group that I would love to get to know better.

What I liked about the group was the fact that everyone in the room was open minded and more interested in learning by sharing their “actual” experiences rather than trying to impress the other members in the room. This creates a fertile environment for growth and people walk away with actionable information that truly helps them inch closer to success. It is fun to share and teach a room of open minded marketers.

The following day I spoke with George Sepich the founder of Talk Marketing Now Network and is a respected marketer. Again, I was impressed and had a great conversation with George which concluded with an agreement that I would become the newest host on TMN. I see this as a huge opportunity to add value to the academy and gain value from the community… an opportunity for expansion.

Beginning on Wednesday November 2nd and into the foreseeable future, I will host a new training show at Talk Marketing Now called “Mega Money List-building and my focus will be the broad subject of list-building. During every session I will cover a full range of subjects to help you build a mega list including mindset, business funnels, sales funnels, tactics, monetization, resources, tools and much more.

The training sessions at the Talk Marketing Now Network are free to attend and the classroom can be accessed by visiting:

>> http://www.TalkMarketingNow.com

I am inviting you to join me every  Monday at 7:00 PM EST to learn how to build a mega list and discover how to create automated income streams as a natural outgrowth from your responsive list. The sessions will include both formal instruction as well as casual conversation among the attendees with lively Q&A sessions. My objective is to help you walk away with actionable knowledge that you can apply to your business immediately.

I am here to help you succeed and this is just another place where I can add value for you.

Have a blessed day!
